Services on the A30/A303

Below is a list of all the signposted services on the A30 and A303. Forming a major route between London and the South West (Basingstoke and Hayle for the purposes of this list), these two roads have a long history in carrying holiday-makers, and as such have attracted a lot of facilities.

The following roads meet either the A30 or the A303, and also have services guides on this website: M3, M5, A34, A35 and the A38.

The following services are under construction and will be added to this guide: Weyhill.

Notes: Often mixed up with the next service area along - this one is next to Hazelgrove Roundabout and often takes that name. It is a small, tight site with a McDonald's and a petrol station, but space for a few HGV bays.
The filling station was formerly operated by Chartman Retail.

Camel Hill

Notes: The restaurant here was originally the Frying Pan Cafe but it was damaged by a fire in 1984. It was then demolished and replaced by a Happy Eater, which later became a Little Chef. The Little Chef closed in 2008 and is now the diner, which has been covered with distinctive Elvis memorabilia.

The petrol station was once operated by Shell directly, but was sold to MFG, who upgraded the forecourt and shop throughout mid-2016, changing the shop from Select Shop to Londis in the process. At the back of the services is a fenced off area, which appears to have been an exit through to Gason Lane.

The services come about two miles before another petrol station and former Welcome Break site at Camel Cross. That one was converted to a Happy Eater too, but was closed in favour of this one.

Notes: Technically this is a picnic area, but it is officially endorsed in the sense that it's designed and run by Highways England themselves. It used to offer just parking for a number of vehicles with a wooded picnic area in the centre, where tourist information and a daytime-only toilet block could be found.
The Highways Agency (now Highways England) tended to avoid building places like this because it has little in common with their main task of maintaining motorways. Eventually, additional catering facilities were provided, which gave Highways England a reliable on-the-ground contact.

Notes: It is located on the former route of the A30, back when it was the White House Transport Cafe, dating back to the 1930s.

The services were recently rebuilt and now feature parking for over 150 cars as well as a new Budgens store, which at the time was a rare sight on the roads. Before the rebuild, the services had a Premier store on the forecourt.

Notes: Also known to truck drivers as 'Plusha Truck Stop'. The services are accessible to traffic on both sides, but are only signposted westbound.
The Subway is situated in the former Antheas Cafe. It is a former BP filling station site, which was formerly operated by Chartman Retail.

Penlan

Notes: This was formerly home to Penlan Eating House which was closed down in August 2012 after health and safety issues.
The shop was formerly branded as Spar, then Londis for a short period of time, and then spent around six years branded as an own-branded shop. It was refurbished in 2017 and now includes a Londis again. It is a former Shell filling station site.

Notes: Prior to the new A30 bypass of Victoria this service area consisted of BP petrol stations on both sides and Roche Little Chef. The Little Chef and westbound petrol station closed as the road was constructed. The filling station used to contain a Costcutter.

Notes: Also known as Fraddon. Despite being advertised on a totem pole next to the McDonald's logo, the Starbucks is actually on the other side of the service road, next to the Kingsley Village shopping centre.

Notes: It is also home to a car dealer. Until 2008 the Starbucks was the Chiverton Cross Little Chef and Burger King.
In 2012, the Total filling station was closed down because of the competition and was turned into a second Esso filling station. The original Esso forecourt is known as 'Chiverton Cross' and the second is known as 'Three Burrows', but both are operated by MRH.

Notes: Known locally as Loggans Moor services, originally it was just a Shell filling station and Little ChefHistory. The Premier Inn, adjoining pub and McDonald's all opened around 2003/4.

The Little Chef closed in 2004 due to increased competition. Travelodge then built a hotel in the former car park of the Little Chef in 2006 and plans were made for the Little Chef to reopen to coincide with the hotel opening.

However, the owners of Little Chef got into financial difficulties and the restaurant remains closed to this day.
